3. I don't want enter to submit a comment when I'm typing in a text box, I want it to add a new line. On input field it is differt, there aren't multiple lines so enter does what you want. Actually I wish tab didn't leave a text box sometimes.
Amen to that. I think this is an idiotic and dangerous (combination of) keybindings. Just absent-mindedly hit tab + return in some form, and bang, you just registered for that $25,000 Carribean Cruise. Or for loads of checked-on-by-default spam lists when you just meant to download RealPlayer.
Yes, you can blame yourself for not being super-cautious, but thosee keybindings really aren't helping. (I should probably have filed a separate bug for that; please don't hesitate to do so, I'll vote for it.)
And while at it, I found the whole tabbing behavior much better in 4.x. When on a web page it would put focus back into the location bar, not on the unpredictably positioned next link in the document. When reading mail I prefer it to cycle through window panes, not through the half dozen links that someone may have in their sig. Keep control-tab for that.
Mail.app (1.2v517) is very, very nice. It's got the rules of Eudora and the junk mail filters of Entourage plus it's neatly integrated with iChat. This is the Mail.app version that I hope will win your heart, like it's won mine.
The Mail.app that will win my heart is the one that will be a MailAndNews.app. Save a newsgroup reply in an imap mailbox with drag'n'drop! if ever there was a place where integration can be useful, this is it.

At this point, wouldn't it be prudent to just quit using that word for anything to do with computers?
For instance, you can accept a contract develop [sic] changes and (...) release your changes to the client under the GPL, but agree not to release them to anyone else until the client says ok. In this case, too, no GPL-covered code is being distributed (...)
"We believe significant progress has been made in our contract factories and that workers in those factories are better off today than they were in 1998 when this case was filed. (...) Nike's commitment to the continuous improvement of working conditions in our partner factories and rigorous implementation of all our corporate responsibility initiatives remains unchanged."
Look! You thought you made us change, but not at all! Our commitment to change is unchanged!
Nike forbids child labor (...) meeting or in some cases, exceeding certain U.S. and international labor standards.
Look! We're meeting certain international standards!
Nike pushed the envelope of corporate transparency by placing user-friendly information on it's Web site, www.nikebiz.com
Look! We can't spell, either!
Nike belongs to the Fair Labor Association, a White House inspired organization to monitor and set policies for companies manufacturing in developing countries.
Look! Our inspiration comes from the place that would never put commercial interests before social, human or environmental rights: the White House !!!
Brown, in a separate dissent, said the majority's decision fails "to account for the realities of the modern world--a world in which personal, political and commercial arenas no longer have sharply defined boundaries."
Hmmm... Maybe the majority would rather influence this "modern" world, than just describe it?
Are there any plans underway to give Perl acces to Aqua, like with Perl/Tk or GTKPerl? I'd really like to be able to write perl scripts with simple, non-XFree86 GUIs on OSX, the way I can use various toolboxes on Unix to create GUIs.
The packages affected by the double-free() libz bug can be devided into
two categories:
1) packages that link dynamically against the system-provided
compression library. These packages get fixed automatically with
the update of the libz package as described in SuSE-SA:2002:010.
Please note that the processes will continue to use the old
version of the libz.so shared library if the have not been
restarted after the libz package upgrade.
2) packages that contain the compression library in their own
source distribution. These packages need an individual bugfix.
We have prepared update packages for this software that can be
downloaded from the locations as shown below.
The following is a list of the packages in category 2):
gpg
rsync
cvs
rrdtool
freeamp
netscape
vnc
kernel
This actually spawned 3 papers in the current Nature. Viewing the first two requires that your institution be subscribed, but the third one is for all to read.
Summarizing discussions on MacNN and the Apple Forum:
The problem appears to be in two portions of the installer script which could translate into rm -rf/your_drive, if certain paths $1 or $2 contain spaces:
#!/bin/sh
# if current iTunes pkg exists, delete it b/c of Installer bug
if [ -e $1Library/Receipts/iTunes.pkg ] ; then
rm -rf $1Library/Receipts/iTunes.pkg 2>/dev/null
fi
# if iTunes application currently exists, delete it
if [ -e $2Applications/iTunes.app ] ; then
rm -rf $2Applications/iTunes.app 2>/dev/null
fi
Though when I looked, nobody seemed to have found where exactly $1 and $2 are defined; also it might be that disaster only strikes with localized versions of the OS.
These are all good points, and it's right to be scared about giving your info away. But these points have been made over and over about credit card information and MS and they're completely invalid.
Why? Every day you use your credit card you are giving your credit card number away. Do you trust the guy at that gas station? Do you trust the person at WalMart? It's one number and many people can remember that many digits without any trouble at all.
No.
Businesses depend on having a good record with CC companies, who hold them accountable for misuse. If something happens, it's easy for you to complain, and easy for the CC company to trace bills. So "Walmart" and "gas stations" discipline themselves. Whoever cracks into a database has no incentive to be careful.
Then there's the international issue. Do you think a "security enabled" windows is going to sit well with the the EU(they tend to side with the consumer)?
I wish one could say that they side with the citizen , rather than the consumer . When the public is regarded as a mere herd of consumers , we're already half way to hell. But what you say may hold true to some extent -- see e.g. this piece of news (Thursday):
Times change. In the past, it is Bill Gates that used to be consulted before tarring the "information highways". Now, it is IBM. In other words, the enemy: indeed Big Blue, as the company is called, has lately taken a malicious pleasure in singing the praises of "free" software, this anti-Microsoft missile (in Bill Gates, one has on the contrary the cult of Copyright). "One of IBM's strategic choices is to support the development of the free software of rights, which interests us because a number of significant applications in electronic administration use this type of solutions", Matignon underlined.
So the Republic has chosen the "free", and suddenly, Bill Gates is no longer to be seen our ungrateful corridors.
But the big worry, methinks, is how long it will remain so. The Brussels institutions are still being defined, and I'm sure that many dream of it becoming like Washington, D.C. -- a place to lobby and bargain for legislation.
As above, now is the time to write/call/email your senator. If the pressure is kept up they are much more likely to drop the bill permenantly. This could be a very good thing.
And don't forget to mention: dropping DMCA-2 does not make DMCA-1 any more acceptable. If this message is lost, then the whole operation is still a success for Disney.
Either we say that code is speech (thus gaining a few corollaries about freedom, etc.; cf. Felten, Touretsky, Sklyarov).
Or we don't.
By making a difference between his kernel's code (which he is releasing, or so I hope), and the comments on that code (which he is withholding), isn't Alan Cox inadvertently fueling an argument that, after all, code != speech?
Pat Stakem, a NASA consultant who works with FlightLinux, a version of Linux that's running on unmanned space flights (...) is not overly concerned about potential danger to Open Source. "We have to make it [the source code] freely available, but [the GPL] doesn't say it can't be encrypted.
Does this make sense to anyone ?!?
How could the source possibly be open yet encrypted ?!?
GPL, for instance, says:
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
All right... scroll back to Section 1:
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code
Now, with the recent threat of getting anthrax through the mail, will congressmen actually read their mail? We already know that they don't actually read email. So, now that snail mail may no longer be acknowledged, is there any way to communicate the people's wishes to congressmen?

Yes, you can blame yourself for not being super-cautious, but thosee keybindings really aren't helping. (I should probably have filed a separate bug for that; please don't hesitate to do so, I'll vote for it.)

Don't think so. gpl-faq :
For instance, you can accept a contract develop [sic] changes and (...) release your changes to the client under the GPL, but agree not to release them to anyone else until the client says ok. In this case, too, no GPL-covered code is being distributed (...)
"They didn't claim it's not doable , only that it's not feasible ."
Does this argument depend on preliminary agreement on the meaning of the word "not" (or something like that)?

Part 2: packages containing libz/zlib
From part 2:
I wondered too (I also have a 7200), and found this answer in the changelog:
This actually spawned 3 papers in the current Nature. Viewing the first two requires that your institution be subscribed, but the third one is for all to read.
YANAL, by any chance ?!?
"Government bad, private litigation good." It sure sounds good. But following this route, look by whom you end up being governed .
No, no, he means STP.
STP Helps Your Kernel Rum Like It Should!
Indeed.
Your analysis is crystal clear. Thanks.
